Remembrance of the Lord's Name alone is enough to save each and everyone. You may doubt whether such a small word like Raama or Sai or Krishna can take you across the boundless sea of worldly life.  People cross vast oceans on a tiny raft; they are able to walk through dark jungles with a tiny lamp in their hands. The Name, which is small, has vast potentialities. The raft need not be as big as the sea. The recitation of the Name is like the operation of boring to tap underground water. It is like the chisel-stroke that will release the image of God, imprisoned in the marble. Break the encasement and the Lord will manifest Himself.

- Sathya Sai Speaks,  Vol 5, Ch 1, Jan 1965. 

"The name of the Lord alone is sufficient to give you all the results from all types of spiritual practice" - Baba
